Brief description
The aim of the course is to present and to discuss a broad range of issues related to international labour migration. Migration is one of the most prominent traits of contemporary world as it was clearly indicated by the term ‘age of migration’. All regions of the world experience massive flows of different kind – from settlement migration and labour mobility through transit migration to forced migration of asylum seekers and refugees. Immigrants have become a structural component of modern societies, especially in more developed countries, and are a subject of interest on various scientific disciplines (economics, sociology, political sciences). The importance of migration became clearly evident during the so called refugee or migration crisis (2014-2015) but it is commonly discussed in the context of long-term socio-economic developments (e.g. migration and ageing, migration-development nexus etc.) |
